MIAMI & NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc.

Zone Intelligence™ seeks to enhance the personal safety of its clientele using threat mapping, geospatial awareness, geofencing and alerts based on client proximity to terror, crime and other threats. Zone Intelligence™ will analyze the data collected in real-time, provide real-time threat intelligence for both domestic and international travel, and advise clients on where and when to travel and when to leave.

“Zone Intelligence™ is the preventative and proactive solution for secure travel in an increasingly threat-filled world,” said HMNY CEO Ted Farnsworth. “When a client enlists Zone Intelligence™, we will be with them, not only with human intelligence on the ground, but also with our big data analytics and real-time intel of the present threats. We’re there with geofencing if the child of a high net worth individual, quite literally, pushes boundaries; we’re there if a corporation has executives doing business in a dangerous area and needs them extracted.”

The launch of Zone Intelligence™ follows in the footsteps of RedZone Map™, which guides users to their destinations along the safest routes based on crime data – which the app tracks in real time. RedZone plans to make Zone Intelligence™ the premier global security service and use its data-driven software to provide the most rigorous security enhancement possible for its clients.

“The key factor in effective global safety is proper security proportionate to the risk – which is heightened when protecting corporations and high net worth individuals,” said renowned global security expert Paul Viollis, CEO of Viollis Group International. “A company is only as good as its intel – and the reliability of that intel is paramount. Zone Intelligence™ can provide its clients with the most reliable data in real time, helping those clients to make the best decisions for their individual and corporate safety.”

RedZone (Zone Technologies, Inc.) is a state-of-the-art mapping and spatial analysis company with operations in the U.S. and Israel. It has created a community-based ecosystem that features a socially empowered safety map app that enhances mobile GPS navigation using advanced proprietary technology to guide users to their destinations, giving them a choice of a safer route vs. a riskier route. The app incorporates a social media component, which allows for “it’s happening now” crime reporting coupled with real-time crime data from more than 1,400 local, state, national and global sources. RedZone Map™ is currently available to iOS and Android users. More information is available on the RedZone Map™ website. Zone Technologies, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Helios and Matheson Analytics, Inc. (NASDAQ:HMNY) is the creator of RedZone Map.
